My husband and I saw Hamilton as part of a Broadway Series. The package was 5 shows, including parking passes for $600. Seats weren't primo,but decent, center back first floor. I enjoyed the entire season. And I would have never done it except that I really wanted to see Hamilton.
I like Broadway but wouldn't call myself an aficionado. I just really wanted to see Hamilton, and this was a bargain way to do it. If we went to NY to see it, it would have cost well over $600 for the two of us between, tickets, hotel, travel.
I am glad I saw it. It's one of a kind. I've never seen anything like it before. That being said, once was enough for me. This is the first play I've ever seen that I felt I had to do "homework" to enjoy. To get everything you can out of it, you need to read up on the history of Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, and listen to the soundtrack because some of the lyrics are hard to get and I felt I had to concentrate to understand some of the words. Funny that even though I was there I didn't get the Eliza, Angelica, Hamilton before and after thing of their meeting. I guess I had to read up on the play too, to understand that. I also was a little irritated at the in your face politics- " immigrants get it done" speaks for itself. I found the over the top cheering by the audience- annoying. IMO let the play speaks for itself- It is suppose to be entertainment- Some people (me) don't want to pay good money to have politics shoved down their throat.
